Terms
The Diamond Hunter's Bible is published by Mysteries Group LLC. Buying from this site means you accept what is written below. If any of it does not suit you, do not buy — and if you already have, the refund section below is unconditional and takes one email.
What you are buying
The Diamond Hunter's Bible is a digital book: one PDF of 271 pages, fourteen chapters and two appendices, delivered by email to the address you enter at checkout. Not a Diamond, the optional add-on, is a second PDF of 12 pages laid out for US Letter printing. Nothing is shipped, there is no physical edition, and no subscription is created by any purchase on this site.
Each file is licensed to you personally, for your own use, on as many of your own devices as you like. You may print it for yourself. You may not resell it, republish it, post it for download, or distribute copies.
Delivery
The download link is shown on screen the moment payment completes and is emailed within a minute. If it has not arrived in five minutes, look in the spam folder. If it is still missing, write to mysteriesmediallc@gmail.com and it goes out by hand the same day. Keep the delivery email: it is how you get back to the file if you change devices.
Refunds — the Second Look Guarantee
Read it. Take it to your own bucket and run chapters 2 and 6 against what is in there. If it does not change what you keep and what you throw back, reply to your receipt or write to mysteriesmediallc@gmail.com within 60 days of purchase and you get every cent back.
No form, no questions, and you keep the file. A PDF cannot be handed back, and pretending otherwise would be theatre. The refund covers the add-on as well, whether it was bought at checkout or afterwards.
Refunds are returned to the card used, through Stripe, and usually appear within five to ten business days depending on the bank. Payments are processed by Stripe; this site never sees or stores your card details.
Editions and updates
This is a first edition, dated. The revision date is printed on the first page of the book itself rather than buried in a colophon, because in this subject the date is part of the information. Corrections and figures that have moved go into the next revision, which carries a new date.
Nothing reaches you automatically: there is no update list and no notification, and buying the book subscribes you to nothing. If you want to know whether a later revision exists, write and ask. If you find something wrong — a figure that has moved, a citation that does not lead where it says it leads, a rule that has been amended since it was read — send the page and, if you have it, the source. Every one of those is read, and the ones that hold change the page.
What this book is not
- It is not legal advice. Nobody who worked on it is your attorney. It quotes land rules with their citations and the dates they were read so that you can read the instrument yourself rather than take a summary on trust.
- It is not an appraisal, a valuation or a gemological certification. The value of rough is set by the world market on size, shape, colour and clarity and by what a cutter believes he can recover, so no dollar figure for any stone appears anywhere in it, and none will be supplied by email either. It is not a substitute for having a stone looked at by somebody qualified with the stone in front of him.
- It is not a list of places to go. There are no coordinates and no site list in it, by decision and not by omission.
- It does not promise you a diamond. Not stated, not implied. Nobody can honestly tell you the odds, and the book says plainly that the numbers you would need to compute them are not published.
Collecting, land and safety
These are the notices that matter most in this subject, and they are repeated here because the book repeats them.
- Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas is the site where the public may pay a fee, search, and keep what they find. Nothing on this site or in the book should be read as suggesting that finders-keepers applies anywhere else.
- National Park System units: recreational collecting of rocks and minerals is generally prohibited outright, with criminal exposure. There is no de minimis exception and no exception for children.
- Bureau of Land Management land: casual collection is allowed, with hand tools only, not in developed recreation areas, not in designated Wilderness, not on an active claim — and for personal use only, never for sale or barter. That last line matters far more for a stone that might be worth something than for a pretty rock. Note the number everybody quotes: the federal rule for rocks and minerals sets no weight at all, only reasonable amounts. The twenty-five pounds a day and 250 pounds a year you will have read are supplementary rules issued by individual BLM state offices, so they are not national and not identical everywhere. Ask the office that administers that ground what the figure is there.
- Forest Service land: the real rule is set by the individual forest, so "the Forest Service allows it" is never an answer. Ask the ranger district.
- Active mining claims: your presence and your collecting can be a trespass. The book shows you how to run the check yourself in the current federal records system instead of handing you a list.
- Private land: the owner's permission, always, before you set foot on it.
- Digging is the dangerous part of this hobby and it gives no warning. Walls collapse with no time to step back, and wet gravel is the heaviest material on the list. The slope rule quoted in the book is standing law at one specific search area and is reproduced because it is concrete and checkable; it is not engineering advice for any other piece of ground, and no book can make a hole safe.
Rules change, local exceptions exist that no book can carry, and the agency that administers a piece of ground is the only authority on what you may do there. Confirm the current rule with that office before you dig or remove anything.
How the book was made
It was assembled from published sources with the assistance of artificial intelligence, and not from anyone's time in the field. Nobody connected with it claims to have stood on any ground. Every load-bearing claim carries a named source and the date it was read, every chapter ends with a source list, and Appendix 2 is the dated record of what this edition decided not to claim.
Liability
The book is sold as information. To the fullest extent the law allows, Mysteries Group LLC is not liable for any loss, injury or damage arising from decisions taken on the basis of it — including any decision to dig, to enter land, to keep, sell or dispose of a stone, or to rely on any identification made without a qualified person examining the specimen. You are responsible for your own safety, for confirming who controls the ground you are standing on, and for complying with the rules that apply there.
